About this deal

Delina is a floral fragrance with a mature personality that’s better suited to slightly older women. On the contrary, Delina Exclusif is slightly more youthful but still elegant enough to be worn by all ages and this is thanks to warmer, less intense notes. I’ve heard a lot of people talking about how many compliments both perfumes get so I guess it’s really a matter of personal taste. Both Delina and Delina Exclusif are super strong and super noticeable. You only need a couple of sprays of your chosen scent and you’ll be noticed across the room. What’s more, both of these perfumes will last well into the next day and potentially longer on clothing. Despite this Delina continues to be one of the luxury scents that fragrance lovers really don’t mind spending their money on, and it has a huge fan base.

The top notes are litchi, bergamot, nutmeg, and rhubarb, while the rosy notes are at the heart along with peony, musk, petalia, and vanilla. But the sheer strength of the rose has caused a lot of people to say that this is more of a grandma’s perfume. In terms of how versatile this perfume is, I’d have to say not very. Being so floral, it’s probably not a fragrance you’d want to wear in winter. But its strength means that wearing it in summer can make it a little overpowering. Personally, I’d keep this for a special occasion and be done with it. My Verdict On Delina However there are some Delina alternatives out there, most notably from dupe houses who specialize in creating a clone of Delina alongside other perfumes from luxury brands. In fact, having been released a year after Delina, but by the same perfumer, you could be forgiven for thinking the two weren’t even related. If you have already tried Delina and been put off by the ‘old lady’ smell then don’t be deterred from trying Delina Exclusif just yet. While there are still obvious rosy notes, they’re far less in your face and this feels like a much warmer, more youthful version of the original fragrance.

My Account

I really like Delina Exclusif. It’s my kind of fragrance with those woody notes and oud alongside the freshness of girly rose. For me, this smells like ‘my scent’ and is likely something I’ll return to time and again.

But what surprises me is that, while the bottle gives the impression of a youthful, fun-loving perfume, what you find inside is a stark contrast. You see, Delina is a much more mature fragrance that’s bursting with rose accords. That said, I cannot deny that the original Delina does everything you’d expect from a perfume. It’s pretty smelling and it performs well, but its less versatile and has a somewhat acquired scent puts it in second place. What’s The Difference Between Delina and Delina Exclusif One of the most popular niche perfumes to come to the market in recent years is Delina by Parfums de Marly.There is still something of a maturity about Delina Exclusif, but it’s nowhere near as prominent as Delina. I think for women over the age of around 25, this would make a perfect, elegant signature scent. The Winner: Delina Vs. Delina Exclusif Oh Delina! Aren’t you a beautifully feminine fragrance! This scent was launched in 2017 and was created by expert perfumer, Quentin Bisch. A floral perfume aimed at women, Delina is the epitome of girliness, captured in a baby pink bottle. It is a little pricier but, as I’ve mentioned, you get a great performance out of it and it’s versatile, so I don’t think you’d be wasting your money. The main difference between Delina and Delina Exclusif is the amount of rose in each. Delina is a perfume with heavy rose notes whereas Delina Exclusif makes rose more of an equal part of the larger composition. I can’t say that I agree entirely but I can see their point. Rosy notes have long been associated with older ladies and that’s OK. There’s a market for every fragrance but if you’re a lot younger, this might be a little ahead of your time. However, that mature character is softened slightly by the tang of rhubarb which, for me, really balances things out.
